Welcome to DadeSystems

Who We Are

Headquartered in Miami, Florida, DadeSystems was launched in 2011 with one singular purpose—to deliver a clean slate, next generation suite of payment processing solutions that would revolutionize how organizations handle their incoming payments. Our goal from the start was to help clients achieve unprecedented efficiencies and bottom-line benefits. Through our advanced technology platform and decades of payment systems experience, the result is the DadePay family of products, a robust system with the most advanced features and capabilities in the industry.

DadeSystems was founded by David Wilson, one of the country’s leading payment solutions experts and a successful entrepreneur who founded ERAS JV in 1995. The company pioneered the development and implementation of the first web-based lockbox, check image processing, cash letter clearing, document imaging, positive pay, account monitoring, overdraft control and ATM balancing solutions. ERAS JV’s success led to an acquisition by Diebold, and soon thereafter, David set out to revolutionize the payments industry once again, founding DadeSystems in 2011.

With a diverse range of clients—banks and credit unions, manufacturers, property management firms, insurers, distributors and other organizations—DadeSystems is dedicated to delivering payment solutions that empower clients to gain control, transparency and visibility over the entire payment lifecycle to ultimately, increase their profitability.

Our vision was to build a next generation solutionthat would truly revolutionize how an enterprise processes incoming payments.

We set some pretty high standards with what our solution needed to support, including:

Simple and rapid deployment based on a browser of the customer’s choice

The ability to capture a businesses’ payment at the point of presentment, whether it be at the central office or in the field, through a mobile device

An image analysis engine that can read and interpret all possible information on the payment or remittance documents

A matching engine that can pair payments to outstanding invoices and improve over time as it recognizes past matching patterns

The ability to process a payment straight through including the update to the customer’s billing/AR system without manual intervention

Today we’ve realized our vision
with the DadePay family of products.
